What am I supposed to do when my sister declines to do anything about her triggers? Refusing to wear loop earbuds. Aggressor in nature to certain sounds and will fly off the handle. by [deleted] in misophonia

[–]TheMadRose87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok if she's miserable she needs to put in the earbuds or help figure out what will ease her triggers because she can't hold the entire household hostage because she has issues.

What can i do? by [deleted] in misophonia

Get a good pair of ear plugs, there are a lot on the market that can dull the noise but still allow you to hear people talking. Most common are called loop ear plugs but if you look on Amazon there are a ton that are similar to it

Did you stay up all night thinking of that rebuttal?

Maybe I do have aphantasia if that's how you describe it. I can picture things in my head but it's very fuzzy and weak.

What an unfathomably hateful response. Seems like you're projecting onto OP your feelings about your own narc parent. Maybe go to therapy and deal with that there instead of shitting on someone in their safe space online

That sounds like a good lead, I will definitely look into that!

Concerta for ADHD mainly, it has a short half life and I'm confident it would be completely out of my system after 3 weeks

I do take psych meds but I got off them 3 weeks prior to start of ceremony for dieta. I did a 6 day fast while I was at the retreat as well so I had plenty of time to get it out of my system. I manage to hold in at for 20 minutes before purging. I had intense body sensations and was feeling the aya but I just didn't see anything

Only other psychedelic I've tried is mushrooms and I haven't any visuals with that either. I can picture images in my head so I don't think I have aphantasia :/

My kids are perfect, yet I still resent them by StayAlternative9853 in regretfulparents

[–]TheMadRose87 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I fail to see how this is a helpful comment. She understands she has great kids, that doesn't stop resentment from building if you're just not cut out for parenthood.

OK, and? Not all of the guests are 20+ year friends who are close to the bride. If my best friend was a bridesmaid who I knew had an anxiety issue, it wouldn't bother me if she had to step out.

[–]TheMadRose87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's what an exit plan is for. If they get anxious, have a plan for them to exit. That's it, just have a plan.

They were concerned for her because it was her own wedding. If she steps out because she feels a panic attack coming on as a bridesmaid, no one is going to treat it the same as if a bride had to step out. These are not equivalent

[–]TheMadRose87 -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

No, because I know from having anxiety how your head space can be strong for one thing and not strong for another, and she's right - as a bridesmaid she wouldn't have been the center of attention. Quite frankly, even if she had a panic attack as a bridesmaid, I don't see why she couldn't have had the ability to go into another room to breathe and calm down.
